Hey Oliver,

My suggestion would be to edit these types of files in a split window or in a new tab page. Since the jumplist is separate for each window and since the jumplist is inherited from a parent window, you can avoid having these items in your jumplist by not "splitting off" from a window in which you're editing these files.

I'm not aware of any setting that will disable the jumplist for a particular file.

Best,
Jason
